II.1.4) Short description

The Coal Authority (Client) was established by act of Parliament to undertake specific statutory duties, set out in the Coal Industry Act 1994, associated with licensing coal mining operations; managing property and the historic legacy arising from the ownership of the coal reserves and underground workings; settling subsidence damage claims not falling on coal mine operators and providing access to coalmining information.

The Coal Authority has a legal duty under the Coal Mining Subsidence Act 1991, to repair properties damaged by coal mining subsidence in the five coalfield regions. The works are

funded by grant in aid from central government, in order that the Coal Authority can discharge its statutory duty.

The Coal Authority employs over 300 people, based mainly at the head office in Mansfield with some field staff remotely based in order to enable a fast response to incidents in the coal mining areas.

The Coal Authority is funded by grant in aid from the Department of Energy Security and Net Zero (DESNZ)

II.2.4) Description of the procurement

The Framework Scope is for the Provision of Drilling and Grouting Works.

This will include drilling into ground which has been impacted by Mining related subsidence of instabilities. This work will be in both open space such as fields or roads as well as in more restricted areas such as within the boundaries of properties.

Further, the work will involve the stabilisation of the impacted ground via Cementitious based Suspension Grouts or Resin based Solution Grouts.
